This is a preowned engraved 54 caliber percussion carbine made by Shiloh Rifle Company Big Timber, Montana sometime before 1991. The serial number is 7819. The rifle appears to be unfired and in excellent condition. The engraving is extensive including the front band, forearm screw, receiver, hammer, lever, swivel attachment plate, trigger plate, butt plate and screws. We believe the finish is the French Grey. The bottom of the lever has the name Layne in gold. This is a rare bird for sure and well below what it would cost to duplicate today. Please feel free to request additional photos that we can email that will show greater detail.
